Document Summary

How criminal law is different from other types of law in canada. Why do we have criminal law: regulating morality. It denounces what we have collectively called immoral conduct. It is what we have called the social contract or societal values. It is a moving target as what was thought immoral a long time ago may not be thought immoral today. Whether you agree where the boundaries are drawn or not is a different question: define the limits of acceptable behaviour. Not just what is moral and immoral but what people are allowed to do. Recognition of regulation so we can maximize our liberty and freedom. Boundary of acceptable and unacceptable behaviour: problem with regulating morality is that there will never be agreement on everything, both legally and ethically it justifies imprisonment, protect people from crime, each law is a social construct. If we did not have crime we would not have conduct.

In a 2011 article from the Wall Street Journal concerning the Occupy Wall Street Movement, the following observation was made:

"What binds a large majority of the protesters together -- regardless of age, socioeconomic status or education -- is a deep commitment to opposition to free-market capitalism and support for radical redistribution of wealth, intense regulation of the private sector, and protectionist policies to keep American jobs from going overseas."

Do you believe that publication of such egregious ethical lapses and immorality is fueling these demands?

Society is changing constantly and families has different point of view of how to live their life or raise their kids. I think what we know so far as a family will change in the near future. Furthermore for my own personal experience I have seen great thing from the changes that have come over the past years to now and it was acceptable by the society however, People and society in general like good changes. My grandma at age of 13 yrs. old had kids and spouse and they used to stay home raising their kids and taking care the house, while spouse were working to bring food to their tablet and older kids in the household used to work to support their parent home too Versus now in 2016 that family are disintegrating, kids are isolating themselves from their family due to the technology and you see more divorce. I could imagine how family will be 100 year from now. I have seen that woman wants to be more independently and having kids is not their priority anymore because I feel that it wonât be no family 50 to 100 year from now. It will be a law that marriage couple are going to have 1 year marriage contract. I can say that many values come from our parents and most are very worthwhile and I pass those values to my kids and I would like to retain them, but Family values are different from culture to culture and tradition and there will be change by the time, based on these I could say that it wonât be moral and immoral activities 50 year from now. We are goings lose moral value and ethic and I will see population decrease causing higher dead and less birth because government will soon controlling family life by limit how many kids a marriage couple could have. Since technology offer a good and effectively way to keep in touch with family around the world, but I also think technology will also affect family in the household. However, technology is taking control when the one on one communication is falling apart. The social media preventing family from communicating and less interaction with family and the society wonât have too much talking. I probably happy to say that the only positive thing that I will see 50 to 100 year from now will be major diseases like Heart attack , diabetes and cancer will largely preventing by the time with new scientist and good technologies. As a family we need to know and stay focus of who we are, in what we personally think values stand for because our action wonât always stay of our deepest belief. There is gab between our life values, action and behavior and if we retain those values chances are that even though 50 year from now wonât matter how great the external rewards.
